Hey, I'm doing about the same for KOSH. Perhaps we should join efforts? However, my approach is probably quite different from yours. I'm trying to use variables and functions to apply different styles and contents (for example links) to the pages. Essentially every page is supposed to build up in a modular way. I actually started out using object!'s, but might drop that idea due to Rebol's lack of a real classes. Except for /shell feature in Core, a reflexive object model is what I currently miss most from Rebol. Let me hear if you're interested.

intelligent configuration, and processing dialect that enable an interested developer to easily adapt the application to his needs, and actively pursue their implementation. Web site content generation is long overdue for improvement. I working on an application like this for a local school, where a web site can generated from simple plain text files.

Oops, that's actually the wrong term. Reflection seems to be the concept where one object may interrogate another to see what services it can perform (if I understood correctly). Which is interesting, but not at all what I meant to say. I should probably just have written a "real" class / object model, where objects are instanced from classes, and classes inherits from parent classes. Just like any usual object model. A modification to a class "reflects" on all objects of that class. But that's not what is meant by reflection. Sorry for that. ;-) Marcus ------------------------------------ If you find that life spits on you calm down and pretend it's raining

I'm interested, but have too little time right now. In about a month, I'll probably be back to doing more on this, as it will be the end of the term for the school, and I'll be back to doing documentation work at the school for two weeks.

Could you explain what a "reflexive object model" is? The few references I found doing a search didn't help me understand the term. Thanks Brett.
